General discussion of migration issues for Sync.next

  • Users not currently using sync
    • No migration issues for , just use FxA for the first time.
  • Existing Sync user
    • If they manually chose to use Sync.next, they would be informed that all < Fx29 devices will not sync to > Sync.next.
    • Fx could detect if sync account clients all use > Fx29, then message user to use sync.next
  • Feature will be off and enabled via pref in Nightly/Aurora/Beta
    • increases risk as little public user testing
    • Since it's behind pref, FxAccount user may have to be recreated, Sync data is not guaranteed.
  • Do we allow for use of custom sync server? Will they still be able to use FxA in this flow?
